Abstract: The present study was conducted at Horticultural Complex, Vegetable Research Farm, Maharajpur, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Jabalpur (M.P.) during Rabi season 2016-17. The investigations revealed that the presence of considerable amount of genetic variability and mean values for all the characters have showed wide range of variability for all the morphological, phenological and qualitative traits studied. The values of phenotypic variance and phenotypic coefficient of variance were of higher magnitude than that of genotypic variance and genotypic coefficient of variance. The genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variation was high for the characters seed yield per plant, number of pods per plant, number of branches at 90 DAS, test weight, number of leaves per plant at 30 DAS, number of branches at 60 DAS. High heritability was observed for number of leaves at 90 DAS, number of leaves at 30 DAS, number of pods per plant, shelling % and length of pods, plant height at 90 DAS, seed yield per plot and seed yield per hectare, number of branches per plant at 90 DAS, plant height at 60 DAS and plant height at 30 DAS. High estimates of GA as per cent of mean was recorded for seed yield per plant, number of pods per plant, test weight, number of leaves at 30 DAS, number of branches per plant at 90 DAS, number of leaves at 90 DAS, number of leaves at 60 DAS, and number of branches per plant at 60 DAS. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance was observed for traits like test weight, seed yield per plant, number of leaves at 30 DAS, number of pods per plant, number of leaves per plant at 30, 60, and 90 DAS.
